The site currently is utilized as an irrigated farm. The overall goal of the project is to provide a variety of high quality mixed uses for the Town of Windsor: with land for a new neighborhood shopping center, an office park, an apartment complex, a seniors apartment complex, condominiums, townhouses, patio homes and a mixture of smaller (6,000 s.f.), medium (8,000 s.f.), and larger (12,000 s.f. plus) single-family lots in a traditionally-styled development where residences, parks, schools, jobs, and shopping are linked by a pedestrian-friendly network of tree-lined streets and bikepaths. The requested mixture of PD-R, MF-2. and GC/PUD will allow the careful integration of these mixed uses as a logical extension of both the existing town and the Brunner Farm (Old Town) planned community providing a graceful addition of needed land uses to the Town of Windsor in keeping with its character and scale. Following are a list of reasons which explain why the Jacoby Farm Annexation and Master Plan could be a valuable asset for the Town of Windsor: 1. This annexation and master plan allow the Town to plan its logical growth outward from its existing core, without leapfrogging over or around unannexed land or straining public infrastructure and/or facilities. 2. This annexation and master plan can supply land for a variety of needed uses in a high quality planned environment in scale with the existing community. 3. This annexation and master plan allows for a complementary mixture of needed uses in harmony with the existing character of the Town of Windsor. 4. This annexation and master plan is designed to integrate the onsite mixed uses logically with each other as well as with the adjacent offsite uses. 5. This annexation and master plan can provide an adequate inventory of properly located land to support, high quality retail and commercial development for the convenience of the present and future residents of the Town. 6. This annexation and master plan allows for high quality residential development adjacent to existing and future schools, parks, and commercial centers. 7. This annexation and master plan conform to Windsor's Comprehensive Plan adopted 1993. 8. This annexation and master plan will be developed to conform to Windsor's Colorado Highway 392 Corridor Plan Design Criteria. 9. Proposed land uses recommended by the committee of citizens appointed by the Town for the update of the Comprehensive Master Plan adopted 1993. 10. Windsor water is adjacent to this site. 11. Windsor sewer has adequate capacity and can be provided through a minor extension of the 18" main in Weld County Road 15 south of Main Street. 12. Drainage for the project will not impact existing Windsor stormwater facilities. All drainage on the northern portion of the site will be directed to on-site detention facilities which will discharge water at historic rates into the No. 2 Ditch. All drainage on the southern portion of the site will be directed to on-site detention facilities which will discharge water at historic rates to Main Street. 13. This project will complete the annexation of Weld County Road 15 and install full improvements to the current northern boundary of the Town. 14. View corridors developed as part of the master plan will allow views of the mountains, and extensively landscaped public areas such as trails, parks, and school grounds. 15. The project can be constructed in multiple phases which permits a controlled build-out as market demand for the various uses dictate. In conclusion, this annexation and master plan will provide a logical, careful and harmonious addition of a variety of needed land uses in keeping with the character and scale of the existing community. - IMPACT STATEMENT - JACOBY FARM ANNEXATION The 144. 986 acre parcel involved in this annexation is located north of State Highway 392 and west of Weld County Road 15 and is further described as being a Part of the Southwest Quarter of Section 17 and Part of the Southeast Quarter of Section 18, Township 6 North, Range 67 West of the 6th P.M., County of Weld, State of Colorado.

Carpenter/ U i Senior Planner August 15, 1996 jec EDUCATION FOR LIFE W NDSOR Brian L.fSchoon Superintendent of Schools August 27, 1996 Impact Statement Jacoby Farm Annexation This annexation proposes 907 multi family units and 205 single family units. Based upon current estimates this would produce a student population on a low end of 325 students and a high end estimate of 750 students. An average estimate for purposes of this document is deemed to be 540 students from this development. Current student population is distributed according to the following: Elementary 43% Middle School 28% High School 29% Accordingly, should similar demographics apply to new construction, district elementary schools would grow by 232 students, middle school by 150 students and high school by 155 students. All students would attend Skyview Elementary School, once annexed to the Town of Windsor under current boundary considerations. Skyview has a current enrollment of 305 with a capacity of approximately 380-400 students. New growth from this annexation would put this building over capacity by 137-157 students. Expansion of this facility by temporary building or new construction would impact the district by approximately 6, 000 square feet for an estimated total of $570, 000. Should the district determine that a new school and boundary changes would be in order, an estimated $5. 7-7 . 0 million dollars would be a reasonable estimate based upon current market conditions. Windsor Middle School is currently over capacity. All new growth in temporary or permanent construction is estimated to be $350, 000 - $450, 000 if in the form of additions. At some point, given other development, the district may look at a second middle school. The impact of a second middle school is estimated to be $11. 5-13 . 0 million dollars. WELD COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT RE-4 1020 Main Street • P.O. Box 609 • Windsor, CO 80550 • (970) 686-7411 • Fax (970) 686-5280 Windsor High School has a capacity of 800 with a current enrollment of 605. New students may be absorbed into Windsor High School if immediate construction would occur. However, given current student population demographics and other developments in the community, this building could reach current capacity within the next 3-4 years. Should the district determine that these students would be bussed due to distance from current elementary schools an additional 5 school busses may need to be purchased for a total cost of $350, 000 at 100% build out. These costs would develop as new housing starts caused the need for transportation. One bus per 70 new students at a cost of $70, 000 per bus would be the impact. In summary, the range of impact at 100% build-out is estimated to be in the range of $1. 37 million for additions and transportation to current buildings to $18.3 million for new buildings and transportation. Time associated with build-out and other developments in the community may have an impact on student growth as well. Certainly new schools would have the consideration of other developments in association with this project. However, this project is of such significance, that as a single project, it has the potential at 100% construction to impact thoughts for new buildings. Submitted by: Brian L.
